Being a "third space" was a core component of Starbucks' strategy. Now their locales have most, if not all, of the chairs removed and it will be interesting to see if people will migrate back.
I will confess that I set aside a particular afternoon a week to read in a corner of my local Starbucks, just as a way to get out of the house.
